Tinyplot: In A New York Minute

Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
The Labyrinth stretches on and on.

The legacy of Cyberbiotics lies in the depths of the Labyrinth like a bloated spider in its web, the materials and resources here a vast wealth for any scavenger. But no one comes here, because those who come here generally never return.

The corridors are metal here, the modern laboratory settings lit with harsh flourescent lights, the once-sterile scents of a lab replaced with an edge of decay and disuse. The halls are, however, clean of dust, strangely enough.

Talon helps lead you all to the Cyberbiotics facility. The wounded Mutate doesn't speak on the trip, mostly leading the way for the group through presence.

Finally, he stops at several doors and halls. "Through there. I saw Fang slipping in there a few times, but I never did myself. No one else who's gone this far has ever come back. I know that's where the Heartless are going." He looks to the others present. "I'll help you guys how I can, but I'm not able to fight much right now."

The looming security doors stand before you all, daring you to enter.

That is, until a speaker turns on with a metallic buzz. "Oh, so we have visitors! And so many!"

Talon's yellow eyes widen. "You! Doctor Sevarius!"

"Oh, you remember me! Excellent. Do come in, we have so much to... catch up on." Doors hiss open, remotely controlled as the way opens forward.
Avira has posed:
Cyberbiotics? In here?

Avira's interest in the assault against Manhattan continues, doubly so with the introduction of kidnapped aid workers. Aid workers! That still completely breaks her heart. She is quiet like a sentinel as she follows after Talon, not attempting to ask the betrayed mutate any questions. Even though she really /wants/ to right now.

Finally, they arrive at the facility and Avira seems pretty amazed. What other secrets lie in the sewers of New York City?! Were the situation not what it was, Avira would be far more excited.

At the doors, she draws her sword, ready to apply some percussive maintenance upon them when that voice comes on. She pauses, then slowly looks to Talon as he speaks that name, eyes widening in...recognition? "Doctor Sevarius?" Slightly shellshocked now, the huntress strides through the now open doors.

"Alright!" she bellows, "Where are they?! Where are the people?"
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
The Barmaid has undertaken lots of mercenary jobs recently, so she seems to be running into the same people often. Its not so bad, it makes more friends at least. People she could possibly call upon if she run into problems at some points. Which may happens. Avalanche isn't really doing any operations, but when it does, who knows.

Plus she owes a few favors to Xanatos, and if she can make the city safer, it will help when she branches out her Seventh Heaven, as Xanatos so graciously offered her as well.

"So what's cyberbiotics? Some kind of cream?" She's thinking antibiotics here obviously. She knows of bionics, but biotics, not so much.
Brooklyn has posed:
That voice. Boy does Brooklyn know that voice. His brow furrows as he looks at the door, and quickly moves up to the front of the group, "Sevarius! We know you've got Fang in there!" He calls out, "And we know he's been controlling the Heartless. I should have known you and Xanatos would be behind this!"

Brooklyn immediately assumes that Xanatos is involved since Sevarius has always been Xanatos' lackey, "Open the door or we'll bust it down, Sevarius!" Because of what happened to Maggie, Sevarius is the only person who draws Brooklyn's ire nearly as much as Demona.
Deidra has posed:
Deidra looks back to Taon for a moment nodinng "Hey it's welcome and we'll handle it as best we can." She pauses at the voice there's something about it that makes her skin crawl. She flexes her wings a bit she's not feeling too good about this? Yet we need to go into the darkness there's no other choice. She knows the company name she's heard of them before but they were biotech and the apprent result of their projects were the Mutates here. That brings up nightmarish thoughts of what the suffered at this perosn hands. She growls slightly inhumanly so as she looks to Tifa for a moment "Genetic resarch from what I know of them." She looks to Brooklyn and she'll make ready to help bring down the door if needed.
Will Sherman has posed:
Will blinks...

"Sevarius? That dude's pretty famous...so why in the hell is h-.." he looks at Talon. "Oh." he says, realizing what was going on. Will, pauses for a moment, then he steps through the door. This was a trap, he knows it, but there wasn't any other way to deal with this. They had to go forward, break his butt, and then proceed to find these people and stop the heartless.

Will Sherman enters the lap, "I'm Will Sherman of the TDA, I have some questions, Sevarius, specifically, what the hell are you doing with the heartless!" he demands. "They aren't something anyone should be messing with!" Will comments.
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
"The doors /are/ open, boy. Are all Gargoyles this insipid?" The speakers reply.

The laboratory is well-furnished and bears signs of low-scale remodeling. There are a series of containment units on one side of the room, their observation areas closed. Complex equipment lines the walls, and a 'slightly-used' medical table dominates the center of the room, with an array of materials laid out next to it. There's even a Jacob's Ladder over in the corner, a required decoration for any self-respecting 'eccentric scientist'. Sevarius himself stands next to a console, clad in a white coat and wearing thick black gloves. "Oh, you want the people?" He smiles. They're right here.

He pulls a lever, and the observation areas open, revealing the kidnapped people, the Hearts Intertwined kidnapees, as well as several Labyrinth dwellers. They're surrounded by strange, undulating black bars, like that of a cage, behind the observation unit viewing area.

"I might be convinced to hand them over..." He smiles. "In exchange for a small donation of genetic material, perhaps?" He holds up a syringe. "It would come in handy in my efforts to research the Heartless and their own... fascinating... nature." He hits another lever, and the other observation area opens.

This one is packed with Heartless. Many of them appear to be altered, mutated in strange ways. "The advancement of science won't be stopped by the likes of you."
Will Sherman has posed:
"..." Will looks right at the syringe, then back at the doctor as the people come down in the giant heartless.

"Guys, get them out. I'll keep Professor jackass busy!" he says, and litterally runs right at the doctor, aiming to try and tackle him to the ground and proceeds to try and repeatedly and brutally start punching the man.

"NOBODY!" he shouts, "MESSES!" he punches again, "WITH MY PEOPLE!" he brings both hands down, aiming to try and brain him something stupid!

Will just starts repeatedly trying to brutalize the doctor.
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart puts a hand on Aerith's shoulder, she doesn't need to be a mind reader or a voice hearer to know that the girl is affected by this sight. Aerith is more affected than anyone else she knows when it comes to Heartless. And she's not going to stand for it either "I don't think you're in the rights for any sort of negociations when you're playing wth people's lives and souls." She tighterns her gloves. "The only payment you're getting is in knuckle sandwiches if you don't release those people. And I mean now."

She's totally with Will on taht one. She's not happy of seeing anyone in that situation.
Avira has posed:
Goodness, this is some full-blow mad scientist stuff right here. He even has himself his own Jacob's Ladder. "Now that's oldschool." Avira murmurs before once again putting on her Big Damn Hero pants.

"Yes, you heard us." Avira narrows her eyes. "The trail leads here. Let them go!" But hey, the scientist wastes no time in showing that they were right and the missing people had wound up here. Their very sight makes her stomach churn with disgust. "This...this is horrifying! Unethical! You have no right to call yourself a man of science!"

Her look of anger is the only response he'll receive from Avira to that request for genetic material. About to advance on the man, Will beats her to it with sheer hobo rage.

Setting her jaw, Avira goes for the control console instead, not to smash it like a barbarian but...seems she's trying to actually operate it, sheathing the Spine as she crosses the room.
Brooklyn has posed:
"I'll not let you experiment on more innocents, Sevarius!" Brooklyn is quick to leap towards the doctor as well, especially with the intent of keeping him from opening the cell with all of the mutated Heartless in it. The last thing they need right now is to fight the doctor and his monsters at the same time.

He knows that, at least at their last encounter, Sevarius is just a normal human, so they should be able to take him without trouble if they can get to him quick enough.
Deidra has posed:
Deidra says "So you didn't have the sense to keep them locked huh?" Or it's a trap one of the other she looks about the medical tabel trying to supress a shudder fromw hat migth have gone on there. She stareas at the Doctor for a moment. She grunts he's asking people DNA samples givne if he could alter people what the hell else could he do with it? The stuff of comic books is proven to frightfully real. She shudders to think what he might do with Gargyole DNA.

She heards the order to go for the people in the cage whil will deal with the Doctor. Will is mad she's never seen him get angry. Will is angry she doesn't think twice before going to her spell book.

"Understood will. Clean his clock!"
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
Sevarius was ready for that.

As Will and Brooklyn lunge for him, Sevarius reveals that his other hand held a taser, which he discharges directly into the pair to gain valuable seconds. ZAP. You got tased, bro.

"Quaint." He says. "Well, if that is how you want it, I suppose I will give you a more... direct demonstration of my work. It will be /excellent/ research."

Avira assaults his scientific integrity. Thankfully, he has none. "You call it ethics. I call it cowardice. You can't expect to make significant advances when mincing about with rats. The biochemistry is completely different! These people are trash. No one will miss them and they can have a use contributing to the betterment of mankind." And his pocketbook. She goes for the console and hits buttons. The observation area opens up, and the people are free... sort of. Ish. There's still that odd cage around them...

"I'll get that genetic material from you lot one way or the other. No one said you had to be /alive/ to donate. I believe you all have an old friend to meet." He says, pressing another button on the console and beginning the release of the Heartless.

And some things far more terrible.

"I have some special gifts for you! Enjoy them!" He laughs, as all hell breaks loose.
Dark Fang has posed:
Yes, the doctor is just a human after all. How hard could he be? However...

A low growl emits through the air, before a shadow casts across the wall near by. The shadow had a feline like face, with wings stretched out back. The low growl emits again, but only becoming louder, slowly becoming a laugh; a mad laugh. As the shadow starts to move, a form starts to come into view.

From the shape, it is Fang, but something has happened to him. The dark brown fur has become solid raven black. Massive claws extend from his fingers like large talons. Those once golden cat like eyes, glow like flames against the dark fur. His wings just as black as the fur over his humanoid body, but with the flaps ripped and holed near the bottom.

Then there was a tail that actually extended out that was almost blue at the tip with a devil like spear tip. His feline like ears were also far more longer and something about that sharp tooth smile looked far more feral then it has ever been before.

"I am so glad you could come...friends.. but picking on the poor doctor like that.." He says with a growl still in his voice, crouching down low to the ground as the tail sways back and forth. "We were just getting ready to have the main feast!" His eyes go wide as his toothy smile only becomes larger.

"ALL OF YOU!!" Then pushing off the ground charging at several people, the Dark Fang lunges for his pray; claws extended and mouth wide open to take a bite out of them!
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:
The most interesting thing about the observation unit area is that it doesn't reveal too much. It doesn't reveal the fact that the bars that the people are trapped in are the type of bars that aren't metal. It doesn't reveal that those 'bars' are possibly teeth.

It doesn't reveal that their imprisonment...

...is alive...!

"RRRRRRWWWWWWWWWAAAAAARRRRRRRRR!!!!"

The arms, almost like tentacles, move up to shoot its arm through the ceiling.

*CRASH!*

The walls come down, breaking apart and they reveal a huge gaping hole at the door.

Meet.. the Neo-Parasite Cage!!!
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
Sevarius laughs as the ceiling is exploded open, the massive mutated Parasite Cage revealing the night skyline of Manhattean as the roof of the Labyrinth is blasted open. "BEHOLD THE POWER OF SCIENCE!" he laughs, raising a dard-gun to fire swirling enhancement serums at the pair of monstrosities. What horror will you choose to fight against? You decide!
Will Sherman has posed:
Will falls back from the electrothereopy. Staggering he falls to his knees...grunting, as his vision goes a bit blurry for a moment... But then he shrugs it off, a normal human shouldn't be able to do that, but he did. Will growls, eyes ablaze as he jumps back onto his feet and once more towards the Doctor. Will strikes, his hands becoming flashes of lightning fast strikes and blows, trying to repeatedly strike at the doctor, while trying to also avoid the man's Taser.

"Yeah. Science is pretty cool, but try explaining what /I/ am doing!" he says, and then each strike aims to grab at...SOMETHING that vaguely looks like strings. The strands visible for only a few brief moments, before being withered away and then disappearing.

"You're going to pay for your crimes!"
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart acks as the new appearance bowls her over, and away from the doc. But she rolls off easily from it. Well, if the point is to take down without killing the 'friend', she can manage that with punches. "So we gotta take you down to get the doc huh? That can be done!"

She kicks off the top of the nearby desk, going toward Fang, her legs moving in to lock around his head. Using all of her body as a counterweight, she flips down unto her hands, and attempts to throw Fang into the nearby wall with a crash. That should slow him down a bit.
Avira has posed:
"There are rules and procedures for a reason!" Avira sneers back, "You think you can better mankind by destroying it like this?" She doesn't even look up from the console but she does gesture a hand in the direction of the imprisoned people (who, turns out, are imprisoned INSIDE a Heartless). "These people are missed, you idiot, it's been all over the news!" It's odd, Avira is enraged, but not like Will at all. It's a strange sort of...indignant enraged.

She doesn't stop there with just operating doors either. While Servarius busily enhances his monstrosities with the power of SCIENCE!, Avira digs through this guy's delicious data, hoping to hit upon something that'll actually help them.

"Is THIS the sort of thing you've built your body of research on?" Avira growls, glancing at Servarius for a few seconds, "Downright /shameful/!"
Brooklyn has posed:
Having gotten tased (bro) by Sevarius, Brooklyn winds up on the ground, though he shakes off the cobwebs in time to spot Fang's changed form. He growls as he picks himself back up, eyes glowing white, "So it finally came to this, huh Fang? Let yourself go over to the dark side.."

Brooklyn rushes towards Dark Fang, ducking low and whipping his tail, and one of his foot talons, around to try to take the Heartless corrupted cat off of his feet, before swinging around and trying to drop the point of his elbow onto his fallen foe.
Deidra has posed:
Deidra has got the attntion of something as it arrives. She realise who it is but he's changed he's changed a heck of a lot at this point. She stares at Fang, just what was he now she's go no idea and he manages to pounce on her there's a sick squishing noise, and she lets out a roar of pain her eyes glowing bright red. She looks at him as she struggles to get back her spell book in hand and there's a small surge of wind as she's preparing to cast a spell she lets lose magic that will sap and otherwise rup into the dark Mutate. "So you serve the one who did this to you? ARE YOU INSANE?!"
Dark Fang has posed:
Dark Fang misses one of his pray, which was a slippery one she was. However at least he got two of them. He can not help but grin that toothy grin at Deidra at her comment. "I guess that depends on who you ask!"

He watches Tifa as she comes in to try and counter weight flip the far larger creature, "Your funny!" He bellows out not amused at first by her actions. However Tifa throws him into the wall, but he recovers quickly as his tail attempts to knock her back.

Then with a large leap off the ground, he goes to move away from Tifa, to in the direct line of fire of Will. He raises up his wings around himself to block the incoming attack, the strings; or whatever it was; slicing only barely through the odd membranes of what has become of the wings, him only chuckling lightly as his wings fan back out. "That tickled." he remarks with a growl.

However then comes in the spell, which he uses his wing once more to take the impact; which seems to absorb it, as he chuckles mildly, until Brooklyn's tail trips him up with an 'Ouf'.

Dark Fang quickly gets back up on all fours, his claws digging into the ground as his fur on his back bristles up, before he just continues to 'smile' now at Brooklyn's direction. "Brooklyn, Brooklyn. Maybe you haven't heard. I am always on the winning side!" He then leaps into the air, as his wings spread out, "Once I am done with you and your little friends. I will take Maggie's heart and feast upon it!! Better yet.. WHILE YOU WATCH!!"

Then he slams down onto the ground sending out dark energy in his wake to those he fights, before rushing to each of them with angry slashes, kicks, and tail lashings.
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:
Those chinsaws tear along the black bars. Its teeth shudders, but remain standing. It shudders angrily, glaring down at the woman.

That monstrosity is souped up. It releases a howling scream as it gets enhanced with the serim. It's long arms bulk up like the hulk. Its growl becomes deeper and guttral.

As for the ice begins moving towards the cage, the creature immediately springs up into the air. *BOOIIINNG!!*

It lands on the othe side, few of the long arm see to slam them all up into the air. And of couse, perform bad things. Like releasing those fangs up at them from each of those arms.

CHOMPY ARMS!
It goes after... Aerith, the one who tried to freeze it; Sarafina, the one with the chainsaw....

Suddenly....

HI AVIRA!!!
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart sees that she's not getting attacked this turn, so she takes a moment to cast up some helping spells for herself and her friends. Looks like this monster is entirely physical, being a bit more dodgy couldn't hurt here after all. She takes a step back, glowing with green magic, casting up haste.
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
Sevarius ducks behind Dark Fang, using him to take the strike from Will Sherman. "Is that your best, boy? I am disappointed! Anything you do or know can be explained with the proper research. The uneducated masses might call it magic... Well, I won't recite that tired line from Clarke this time." He chuckles, loading a clip of darts filled with ominous-looking compounds. "I have a new sequence that I would like to test. Here, come enjoy!"

He showers the assaulting heroes with the darts, hoping to strike them with the potent contents.

Avira hax the Gibson. Or rather, the fact that Sevarius didn't lock the computer since he wasn't away from it. A fatal mistake, perhaps. Ridiculously complicated genetic sequences and other information flies past on the screen, as well as a file that apparently contains Sevarius' observations of the Heartless, research logs on experimentation on the people of the Labyrinth... and several recordings. What data would Avira like to look at first?
Deidra has posed:
Deidra is prepared for Fang this time the Gargyole stands her ground against Fang. She hears what he's saying she looks at him as he states what he will do she's mad. She hasn't met maggie but anyone thinking of doing something like this? It enraged her, her fangs are beared and her eyes are glowing red again as she starts to defected his attacks using her arms renvolved with some sort of matgical field and the dark energy doesn't seem to effect her. It passes abotu her like a rock in the tide that's whens he starts castings. Winds assails Fang, howling energy winds as she keeps chanting jagged bolts of ice joins them as she attempts to impale him and strike him down then the winds pick up to try to juggle him back up into the air.

"You will not have your way."
Will Sherman has posed:
"You know what they say..." Will starts as Dark Fang stands in the way of his attack, Will's manipulations were aimed at someone else...and thus harder to change the strings of fate on a different target at random. A bit of a sneer croses his face, as his hand snatches out as the darkness comes from the mutate+. Will breaks through it, hurting, but not before his hand reaches out to randomly wither strings that he can touch.

The dart from the good doctor ...smashes into a piece of debries thrown up by Dark Fang, seemingly at random as he turns his head towards the doctor...but how could he even know? Without hesitating, he moves to take advantage of the doctor moving from cover, his hand moving to jab punch him right in the bridge of his nose.

But Will doesn't stop, he swings again, and again, the first aiming to punch him right in the chest, before a second kick aims to send him into the ground.

Once more he hits the man's strings again, seemingly at random.

"The more arrogant they are, the harder I HIT!"
Brooklyn has posed:
Once again struck by Fang, Brooklyn is not about to give up, especially at the threat made towards Maggie. He roars out as he picks himself back up from the ground, holding a hand over the injured spot for a moment, before turning back towards Fang, "You won't lay a finger on her, Fang. That much I swear!"

Brooklyn dives in again towards Fang, rolling as he hits the ground and coming up under his opponent. He pushes off with his powerful legs, trying to carry Fang into the air, releasing him at the top of his jump and pulling back to swing both hands together in a powerful axe handle strike.
Avira has posed:
Clearly Will's hobo fury prevented the untimely locking of the computer. Avira is happy to play with the delicious, delicious data left for the reading while she has the chance. Straight up genetic sequences are pretty meaningless to her, especially without some context or notes to back them up. She goes straight for his notes, queuing up one of the recordings while she starts to search the immediate area for a stray floppy disk or two. (Hello nineties.)

Since Sevarius is a mad scientist, she assumes that he's got this place wired to explode in some fashion. Best to figure out how to take this all with her!

Her search is rudely interrupted when one of the mutated parasite cage's chompy arms snakes over and closes down upon her, yanking her into the air. The Heartless will find the short huntress to be a tasty morsel indeed.

Avira shrieks in surprise, wiggling and thrashing. Having sheathed the spine earlier, she's in no position to stab her way out and instead wrenches her arm free and sticks it deep into its mouth, unleashing several blasts of ice magic. That magic certainly seems stronger than what Avira's used before...practice maybe?
Dark Fang has posed:
Tifa casts some magic, this gets Fang's attention for a moment. Those flaming gold orbs as eyes can just be felt staring right at her. However this attention was quickly turned away as Will got the better end with a returning blow.

Fang snarls in annoyance "Why you..."

However whatever thought process was going through Fang's head at the time quickly ends as Deidra comes in with a magical spell that pings up into the roof and then slams him into the ground. He grunts, shaking his head a bit as he tries to get back up, buuuut...

Here comes Brooklyn.

The red gargoyle slams him /yet again/ into the air and smashes him around up there. The best that Fang can do at this moment is open his wings and try to get away from the brutal strikes that Brooklyn delivers in his anger, though Fang does reply with a roar; no words this time.

Then with his body almost becoming a solid black ink, he goes to dive Brooklyn to the ground by attempt to bit into his shoulder, dragging him down with the fall. However, Brooklyn or not, on the impact with the ground. Fang moves out from the impact spot, wracking his claws for his target in a feral madness.

That grin was gone and those eyes were only glowing brighter yellow. Though one could almost hear in the growl, '..hunger..'.
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart can be slippery, but can't get them all either! She oofs painfully as she lands on her back, being tossed around by the powerful claws. She rolls to the side, under the nearby desk, manging to get out of the way of the last claw that might have ripped away a whole arm if she let it. As soon as she gets on the other side of the desk though, she kicks it into Fang's direction. It serves as a distraction, showing off her own's speed as she's uderneath that same desk when it impacts, not giving Fang time to react as its a face-meet-fist into a hard uppercut, hoping to lift up mutated man of his feet.

And while in the air, its the barmaid's foot that meets up, and then kicks him back down to the ground. An attempt to juggle it around a bit, might clear up his head a bit more.
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:
Victims in the air...~

The Neo-Parasitic Cage is hissing. The smiley face at the cage is looking over its prisoners whie it is flying in the air. It remains skyhigh until it notices that its victims are fighting back.

Avira's arctic magic rises against its tendril, causing it to release a howl in agonizing pain. As the chainsaw moves out to start rending against it, the creature does quickly swoop away from the cutting edge. owever, the worry of getting pierced did get it pushed to the ground.

That is ended pretty quickly when the monster springs off of the ground. Chains ripple from the ground to ensnare its victim back into the air. Its eyes light up to channel a dark sealing spell on the group.

And a shriek is echoing in the air, loud enough to make one's mind shudder.

Nevertheless, the people trapped inside of the beast are calling for help.
Brooklyn has posed:
Whatever the Heartless have done to Fang, somewhere in the back of Brooklyn's mind he hopes it's undoable. Fang may be a big, loud mouthed jerk, but he doesn't deserve this fate. Nobody does. The inky mutate slams the gargoyle into the ground hard, and the claws begin to rake down around him. Brooklyn does his best to defend, but he can't seem to get anything going.

"ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!" He roars out, white eyes glowing through the blackness of Fang's form, as he channels all of his strength and pushes up, hauling the mutate up with him as he does so. Once he has enough clearance, he pushes his feet off of the ground, and kicks both talons at Fang's chest, to drive the sharp, stone crushing edges into him, performing a backflip as he pushes off of the feline. Landing on his feet, he lowers his shoulder and bum rushes forward, aiming to spear Fang into one of the facility's walls, and hold him there while the others wail on him, giving a few shots of his own for good measure as he does so.
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
Sevarius is not a fighter. When Will comes striking at him, He yells, diving to one side and lunging to try to escape the assault of the Doom Hobo. Luck works against Will for once, the fickle beast, as he barely gets out of the way. Will's attack smashes through an expensive machine behind him. "DON'T BREAK THAT! THAT'S HARD TO REPLACE!" Sevarius yells.

Meanwhile, those formerly captured Heartless? They're not attacking the heroes. They're climbing up the fallen debris, rushing out into the city in a mass, adding to the ongoing chaos.

Lasers rain down upon the area as military forces converge, trying to keep it contained, but how much can they really do in the face of such dire odds. The world needs heroes to turn the tide.

Thankfully, they got some right here. Sevarius narrows his eyes as he sees the battle turning against him. "I won't allow this! I cannot accept this! My science is supreme!"

He fires more darts to the monsters, giving them augmentations as they battle!

attack Chief, Reize=I've Got, I've Got, I've Got
Will Sherman has posed:
Will is getting /REALLY/ sick of this *goosehonk*. Every godd...

The heartless...he blanches at the realization that the heartless are going straight into the city. This is bad...it is very bad. This is the complete opposite of good, and not a GODDAMN thing he can do about it. Will growls, looking at the doctor who continues to screw with his people...and with his city.

"YOUR SCIENCE IS FALSE!" Will booms, and leaps once more towards the doctor, aiming to try and drag him into the ground viciously, once more just trying to pulmel the man.

"YOU IDIOT! LOOK AT WHAT YOU HAVE UNLEASHED! SCIENCE! This isn't science! This is stupidity! YOUR DUMB! YOUR FACE IS ALSO DUMB!"

Will Sherman: master wordsmith.
Dark Fang has posed:
Tifa and Brooklyn both come in for the strike. Tifa trying to get Fang back under control, while Brooklyn seems to be having the same concern. Fang is knocked into the air By Tifa and slammed heavily by Brooklyn.

The impact slamming Fang into a wall and the "Good" doctor's remedy helps him just in time for his claws to dig into the wall before he just slams back into his backside.

Fang shakes his head a bit, before those flaming orb eyes look at Tifa, Then too Brooklyn, then to Will. The gears could be seen turning. Which maybe was good; this meant that some part of Fang was indeed still there. Though if he was indeed there, he wasn't wasting his breath right now to show he was fine.

For the moment he clings to the wall as he inhales a few breaths, then lunges directly at Will in attempt to move him away from the Doctor, before moving to go after Tifa next.
Avira has posed:
For a few moments, Avira manages to wiggle free and drop back to the ground. Knowing full well that she has this Heartless's unfortunate attention, she tears the Spine loose with her right hand. Though she turns to face the mutated parasite cage, she's still backing away, trying to get back to the console again so she can get some serious data mining going.

Unfortunately, she doesn't get far. Chains wrap around her and pull her into the air, leaving her subjected to the Parasite Cage's dark energies. She struggles again, frantically hoping to at least get sight of Sevarius so she doesn't have to deal with getting snuck up on by that creepy, unethical jerk. In the process, Avira manages to free her right hand, which gives her just enough mobility to fight back.

Now the hunter's ice magic is channeled through the Spine, a technique she was pretty familiar with by now. What follows seems to be a combination of that with the sharp extensions of will she occasionally makes with just the blade alone. The result is several spinning crescent-shaped blades of ice, thrown not only at the dark chains binding her and the others tangled with the Parasite Cage...but at Sevarius himself as well.
Deidra has posed:
Deidra had had to well fall back for a moment she seems to be preparing something of an assault upon fang as her allies rip into him. She lets Bro and Tifa keep him busy while she starts to chant another chain of spells. She's going to try to bring him down unleahsing a fairly powerful curse spell upon him. He'd totally hear her chanting in latin which might give him some warning. She then unleahses the spell upon the Dark Mutate

"You want to surive the power you are taping always ends one way the heartless consume you in the end!"
Brooklyn has posed:
While Brooklyn is doing his best to keep Fang from getting loose, he doesn't manage to hold him and the mutate breaks his grasp. Brooklyn can see him fighting, knowing that the real Fang must be in there somewhere, and this wasn't what he wanted, "FANG!" Brooklyn calls out, as he tries to get the attention of the mutate, "I know you're in there. This isn't what you wanted, now fight back!" He jumps from his position and digs his claws into the wall, scaling it while trying to make Fang focus on him.
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
Avira is more than capable of getting her copy on. There's a convenient stack of floppies handy for it, should she get the chance to do so.

The fact that she's carving a swath through the room helps. Also, Will punching the Doctor in the face. There is a satisfying crunch as Will breaks his nose, and he reels. "My face! You hit me in the face! You bastard!" And a moment later, Avira's ice crescents shear into him, driving him to the ground. "Gggh... I will not... let this happen..." He levels his weapon at Will, strafing it back to Avira as he fires. A barrage of darts, each laden with a terrible loadout, streak back towards them both!
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart manages to take out Fang's attacks one by one, using her hands and arms to block in the incomming hits. It still brings out a few scratches, but nothing serious there either. Its impressive what strenght she hides in those small arms, compared to the more feral Fang, but she manages it well.

As the last claw comes in, her left fist comes up to intercept it. Quick as lightning (the object, not the person, who the hell call themselves lightning anwayy), she twirls on herself, moving her grip to Fang's wrist, using that hold to keep him in place, as she slams into him with her right elbow.

All the meanwhile, her fist starts to glow with explosive energy. Another spin, and a hard punch comes in straight for Fang's chest, releasing the energy on contact, to send him flying back strongly.
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:
The voltage of Aerith's thundara spell hasthe creature howling and roaring in pain. Nevertheless, it is only seething and is now lurking to do some harm to the girl.

As Avira launches forth the crescent shaped blades of ice towards the chains, they successfully snap away the chains. However, what comes next is not so desirous. Those fanged jaws lunge out to snap against the blade, the arm crushing it into fragments.

Meanwhile, the people inside of the creature's cage-stomach duck low, crying and screaming. The whirlwind of the cutting force tearsa gainst it. The bars are slowly starting to lose the toughness of the bars.

Those chains... the Heartless is reaching out those tentacle-arms to latch at Will. Then, the other arm moves towards Aerith. As for Sarafina. Since she wants to be so close and personal?

The jaws of the cage opens.

All of the two are going to be brought into its mighty cage.
Will Sherman has posed:
Will looks satisfied as the doctor got punched.

However, Will's not quick enough, and feels a little prick. Grunting, his vision gets blurry, but he shakes it once more, eyes narrowing at Anton. He then leaps back, just in time for the chains of the Parasite cage to crash right where he was going to be, and he considers it for a moment. Geeze...

Lucky break!

He moves to a halt, and flies into the air to avoid the beast again, because even missed attacks throw you up...

Will's hand clenches...

"That's enough." he says, and...something changes. There is a vicious aura that fills the room for a brief moment, but Will is already flying towards the Parasite cage, aiming to repeatedly beat into it's body...strike after strike blows, before aiming to launch it down towards Anton.

Will's hand comes up, dark energy radiating off of it as he grabs two strings...one for Anton, and one for the cage.

He jerks, trying to litterally CUT them, causing a powerful reaction to surge through them both.
Avira has posed:
Before the chains crumble away, Dr. Sevarius fires his dartgun, which hits the back of Avira's thigh. This earns a startled yelp and once Avira hits the ground again, she reaches behind her and pulls the dart out of her, throwing it aside. Her blood starts to boil, but after a few seconds, it abruptly stops, sheer willpower fighting off the contagion he tried to infect her with.

Sorry Sevarius, no human-llama mutate for you.

Putting distance between herself and the parasite cage, Avira circles back to that console-but not before making a Sevarius-directed detour. Glowering, she lashes out with the spine, first to knock the dartgun out of his hands. She follows up with a sudden tackle as she tries to shove the man over the operating table onto his back.

"/Stay/." Avira growls.
Dark Fang has posed:
Tifa does an excellent job at taking a hold of Fang and letting him have it. He is thrown into the wall and slams hard into the ground, having to shake his head, coughing a bit, before pushing himself back up. A low growl emits out as his wings flare out in warning. "You little..."

He spoke!

However that was short lived as the latin is heard and Fang turns to look toward the one who chants it. There was a narrow in those eyes. As she chants, he actually picks up a chair and chucks it at Deirdra's just as the spell is cast, as if trying to interrupt her in time before it could be finished. Though the spell did indeed impact him and he has to try to shake off the effects; at least he wishes he could.

Will also attempts his share of the damage. The very strings causing Fang to nearly crumble over in pain. coughing, struggling for a moment. However it would seem it still wasn't enough to keep him down. His body was aching. His fur scuffed up. Those eyes, those eyes almost pleading for a moment, before he closes them and inhales deeply to force himself back up.

Then Brooklyn speaks up, this turns the attention of Fang directly to him. Those golden eyes staring him down before at last that smile break onto the face of the cat-goyle mutate. Though it was one of those smiles that you knew meant you were 'dead-meat'. "Shut up!" He roars out at Brooklyn. "Shut up Shut up Shut up... SHUT UP!!!".

Brooklyn now has Fang's complete, undivided attention as that raven black furred Mutate leaps into the air to try and snatch Brooklyn in his claws, his claws attempting to sink into the gargoyle while dragging him back down to the ground below. "I know what I want you little punk. I KNOW WHAT I WANT !! Dead! Your death!! I.. want you.. you...DEAD!" ...but is that really the truth of it?

On impact a darkness explodes upward around Brooklyn and Fang, as the very Mutate attempt to drain the very life out of Brooklyn.

This may be the chance Tifa, Deidra, and the others need to knock some /real/ sense into Fang. To snap him out of his deranged state.

Brooklyn bait is a go!
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart can only keep on the offensive. At least her fists won't spear a hole through him, while Brooklyn tries to talk some sense into him. She's just going to keep weakening his body until the mind gives in, it has to tire out eventually!

"Why would you try to kill your friends, you idiot!" Face meet feet, if you please.
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
Just you wait, Avira. Anton will be teaming up Yzma in the next direct-to-TV motion picture extravaganza: Everyone's New Groove: Kronk Pulled The Wrong Lever Again.

You'll SMASH IT WITH A HAMMA.

Something runs through his body as Will takes ahold of his strings and shatters one. He grunts, falling to the floor as the trauma resonates back through his body, creating wounds that were no there before. "What the hell was that..." He hisses. While he's distracted, though, Avira strikes! Strikes with the power of a wolf! Not a llama. Definately not a llama. The dartgun goes flying from his hand as Avira smashes it. It hits the wall and shatteres, and Severius gets himself slammed down onto a table. He stares at Avira, holding up his empty hands. "Okay, okay, just stop hitting me!" He says.

Meanwhile, as soon as Avira turns her back, he reaches for a syringe on the table...
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:
As Sarafina lashes out with those chainsaws...
One of those headed arms lashes out like a serpent, seeking to snap out at the chainsaw. It stops it dead on its tracks from pinning it down. Even her teeth trying to bite down at the tendril...
One of the heads move to bite her in the face.
Yet, the force does bring the creature down. The monster has its wire cut down. With that wire snapped, the beast undergoes a urge of energy as the magical essence slowly withers away.
Those chains lash up once more, seeking to tear against both Sarafina and Will.
For now, Aerith is safe...
She's just trapped with the prisoners.
"Ar....are we going to be alright?" One of the prisoners asks..

You know what? Tifa, for some reason, gets the Parasite Cage's attention. And she, as thus, becomes a target for those chains her way.
Avira has posed:
Definitely NOT a llama.

Shame that her wolf buddy isn't here with her, or she would be asking him to watch over the scientist on the table. For a few seconds while she has him pinned, she actually considers ending him right then and there. One quick stab of the Spine and...

...no. No, she can't do this. Avira can already feel herself freeze up at the thought and her hand tightens upon her weapon. The other hand jabs a finger into the geneticist's chest. "I mean it. /Stay/." she sneers at him, then turns back to the console. Scooping up the pile of floppy disks, she starts frantically feeding them into the drives while she has this rare moment of opportunity. With reckless abandon, she copies as many files as she can, being sure to start with all the scientist's notes on the Heartless.

She doesn't seem to notice Sevarius's movements though. Whoops.
Will Sherman has posed:
Will pauses...

That felt good, but he controls it. As good as it felt, his power could be used more than destruction. His eyes blaze, as he stares towards Anton. "It's a power you can't fathom. A power that might not be understandable...but a power that also grows because of the friends I have. They put their faith in me, and I do the same to them. You don't know anything about that...people are things to you."

The chains of the parasite cage wrap around Will, drawling him into the monster and he lands with a painful slam. He groans, rolling across it's...stomach, but he slowly stands eyes ablaze.

Will's hand reaches up, grabbing at his own strings. The strings to the people he knows, and trusts. Sarafina is in trouble...and Brooklyn risks everything to buy the others time. Will see's their sacrifice...and the connections of his bonds solidify into very powerful strings.

A brilliant energy radiates from the hobo, those who look at him can see a bright light, a brilliant place shines in the bits of aura...as if where standing infront of a portal to a glorious place. The moment is gone, but what is not gone is the brilliant light that fills Sarafina and Brooklyn, solidifying their fates.

"DO IT!"
Brooklyn has posed:
As the strangely possessed Fang comes at him, Brooklyn readies himself for what's about to happen as best he can. Feeling the very life force being drained from him, he drops to a knee, feeling defeated...But no. He won't go down like this. He can't go down like this. Goliath entrusted him to step up and lead the clan, and Goliath is gone...It /is/ Brooklyn's job to step up. To lead the clan to victory. To protect this city from any threats, and right now, Fang is a threat that needs to be dealt with.

Mustering his strength, Brooklyn reaches up and grabs Fang's arms with both of his hands, and pulls the mutate down with all the strength he can muster, trying to headbutt him under his jaw with that horned gargoyle skull. He releases Fang's wrists, and hauls back with his right arm, driving his fist towards the mutate's gut with the full force he can muster.

But he's not done, because should that blow double over Fang like he intends it to, the gargoyle grabs ahold of his opponent's head once again and jerks downwards with all the force he can while, at the same moment, Brooklyn brings up his right knee, intent on smashing it square into Fang's jaw, hopefully knocking the mutate out cold and putting an end to his delusions of grandure.
Deidra has posed:
Deidra lookst at Dark Fang for a moment, preahps he was tricked prehaps he is selfish but consumed by the hartless is a worst fait than death. Her action does get his attetion however she's able to surive as Brooklyn gets a lot of attention from Fang this give her time. Enough time to start chanting again, ice and lighting ionce more answer her call but it's not yet spent nay she's got something else in mind. She's used this spell before but Will would know he's only ever seen her use it once. THe pitch and tempo of the chant picks up untill she finishes the last word and then? A bolt like an orbital canon strike seemingly comes from no where down towards Dark Fang.
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
It is a pity. Avira will need to pay more attention in the future. As she turns to rifle though his computer systems, Sevarius holds up the syringe with a devilish smile. He doesn't ammounce his intent, striding forward to plunge the syringe into her back and drive the plunger down. "What do I look like, a dog? Well, perhaps you will when I'm done with you." He draws his taser pistol, and fires it twice into her back for good measure!

A moment later, Sarafina slams into him from the side, hammering him into a counter full of beakers, which shatter immediately, leaking foul substances all over the floor. .

He never was good at Reaction Commands.
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:
Inside of that monster's cage stomach....
It releases a howling scream of agonizing pain. It shudders and writhes in agony. It's entire body shudders and it snarls and hisses. The creature is starting to look over towards the targets of interests. Then, it happens...
The creature is pissed.
It is so pissed that it explodes. It is going to screw up everything. Aerith will feel the dark presence seking to drain her. The negative energy spreads as the creature seeks to extend its noxious mist around. And its chains seek to pull those within its grasp up into the air..
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart isn't given a chance to catch her breath much, even as she's attacking Fang. Brooklyn manages to knock him out, so that's one less trouble at least, but the cage decides to lash in her direction. The same one that was trying to swallow up Aerith huh? Well, time to take it down as well.

She turns in its direction, charging it up with her fist starting to glow with power again. You've seen it before, when the barmaid wants something down, she goes all out on it too. Before the fist strikes in though, its met with a strong punch to soften it up, and then the explosive fist strikes into the same spot, hopefully crushing any defense it was trying to build up, sending the shockwave straight into its core.
Avira has posed:
Each filled disk is stuffed into one of the leather pouches at Avira's waist so something tragic happens such as the filled disks getting mixed up with the blank ones. She works surprisingly fast, demonstrating that she certainly does know her way around a computer. Though would such a thing be noticed in the chaos of this fight? Except by Anton?

Something painful jabs into her back and immediately it feels like fire has been injected into her. "I thought I told you to-" Sevarius interrupts her with some pretty distressing snark and before she can turn on him, he's shot her in the back with his taser.

Work interrupted, Avira shudders and slumps forward against the console, scattering the now half-depleted pile of disks all over the place with a clumsy hand. For a few terrifying seconds, she cannot move, no matter how much she begs her body to do so. The mad scientist looms over her...

...until Sarafina slams into him, knocking him away into one of his counters. A sigh of relief escapes her and she finds that the timely intervention from Sarafina gives her just enough time to shake off the numbness caused by the taser. Shakily, she retrieves her weapon and storms over to Sevarius.

"/What did you put in me?!/" she demands, jamming the Spine into the floor precariously close to his leg. One hand reaches down to grab him by the collar and half-haul him up. "TELL ME!"

She slugs him in the face. "TELL ME!!!" she hits him again.

Avira continues shaking and punching the scientist until he seems willing to talk.
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:

It releases a howling scream of agonizing pain. It shudders and writhes in agony. It's entire body shudders and it snarls and hisses. The creature is starting to look over towards the targets of interests. Then, it happens...
The creature is pissed.
It is so pissed that it explodes. It is going to screw up everything.

When Tifa comes forth towards the creature with its combo, it sails while in the air, distant from Tifa's assault.
Aerith will feel the dark presence seking to drain her. The negative energy spreads as the creature seeks to extend its noxious mist around. And its chains seek to pull those within its grasp up into the air..
So will Will and Tifa.
Dark Fang has posed:
Fang held onto Brooklyn for awhile, however Tifa came in and smashed his face away which saved Brooklyn from being drained completely of his life; which was a good thing! He actually spits some blood off to the side from the sheer impact force of Tifa's strikes once they are said and done. If looks could kill, however his wraith was still held onto the youthful gargoyle.

The two of them, you see, had a thing. Its not really complicated, but it does go back just a wee bit, there was a girl probably involved, some confrontations, Talon, and you know how it gets between guys. It was like that really.

Then a light impacts onto Fang, tearing into him. In this short moment; Fang's normal colors could be seen bleeding through the light, but it wasn't enough. It wasn't enough to tear him free of whatever had been done to him. "I.." His voice growls out, "..will.." whatever he was going to say though gets completely interrupted yet again.

Brooklyn slams his head right into the mutate's jaw. Then the fist slams him in the stomache, which Fang 'oufs' and nearly coughs as the air escapes from out under him. Then comes to knee jab, right in time with another of Tifa's fists.

Between the beatings, death ray of doom from above, and Brooklyn's sheer will to fight on. Fang stumbled a bit, before he just fell flat onto his face, onto the ground. His wings laying flat there, with him lightly breathing. Muttering something non-comprehensive.

Yep, he wasn't getting back up anytime soon.
Brooklyn has posed:
After Fang finally goes down under the assault from Brooklyn, the gargoyle slumps to one knee and takes a moment to compose himself. Unfortunately, Fang wasn't the only threat down here. So tired as he may be, there's no rest for the wicked. Brooklyn forces himself back to his feet, and spies Sevarius, who isn't done yet, it seems. Well neither is Brooklyn.

He does however pause when he spies Avira aparently trying to manhandle Sevarius. He decides he should help. Maneuvering his way around behind Sevarius, he holds out his claws and grabs ahold of the doctor, to help Avira shake some information out of him, quite literally, "You've lost, Sevarius! Call off your monsters and fix what you've done!" He digs in with his claws, just to emphisize his point.
Will Sherman has posed:
The following moment was brought to you by shadow priests.

Will is grabbed by the chains, struggling to try and get free before it brutally and repeatedly beats him into a wall. UP and down, UP and down, UP and down, UP and down.

Will is looking horribly beat up, groaning as he grabs the chain. His one hand TEARS the thing off of his leg. The hobo has had just about enough of this crap, as he slowly gets back to his feet...

And then LAUNCHES himself full force towards the Parasite cage, not even caring anymore. He just swings his fist, in a single powerful blow as he runs through it, aiming to try and hit the soft fleshy parts underneath the less soft and fleshy parts.

Will, hopefully, doesn't bounce off and lands on the other side of the Cage, hand glowing blood red.
Neo-Parasite Cage has posed:
The stomach that keeps the people inside...?

It begins meeting with the light. That pure, unadulterated light erupts from the beast's stomach. As everything envelops it, it slowly begins withering away.

But what does the job...?

The fist runs straight through it. As that fist strikes through the soft, flesh parts, it is tearing the creature asunder.

Everything about the creature withers away...

And the people are free.
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
The Doctor is picked up and manhandled, shaken repeatedly. "LET ME GO YOU BEAST!" He yells in response. trying to win free.

There is no chance. Avira is on him, smashing him with incredible force as she unleashes her anger. Important things popping and snapping are heard as she hits him again and again, his face quickly bruising and bloodying.

It doesn't take long for Sevarius to be beaten near into unconsciousness, as he lolls to one side and sees Fang fallen, bleeding off the Darkness infusion that he received. He /might/ be okay in time, but that doesn't change the fact that he's always been a jerk in general. The Neo-Parasite Cage explodes from Holy Power, vaporizing and freeing the kidnapees, who are quickly helped by the heroes out of the new crater in Manhattan. Police sirens wail, and Sevarius groans. "Everything... Ruined... You want to know what was in that syringe?" He smiles, bloodily. "You'll find out in time..." He starts to laugh, but coughs, immediately interrupted by painful spasms from the damage he's sustained.

It seems that the heroic forces have stopped the source of the disturbence in the Labyrinth, stopped a terrible coup and resolved the kidnapping issue...

But what about the Heartless that have gotten loose? Battle rages in Manhattan as the legacy of Sevarius creates more chaos in the streets.

It would be /terrible/ if someone took advantage of this.
Reize Seatlan has posed:
MEANWHILE

Somewhere within the streets of Manhattan...

"I was supposed to make a right... Need to talk to Mercade about something." He looks at his map once more, peering at the directions provided. He knew Mercade gave him this map, but Reize is still having a hard time reading it.

...Even the directions look upside down.

As a few Shadows lurk, Reize is reading.

"...Let's see..."

The Shadows see their chance and spring at Reize. However, the boy quickly fades and he darts in all direction. With a flick of his boomerang, all of the others fading away and he promptly grabs the hand of the last Shadow to slam it on its back.

It explodes into munny.

Dramatic pause... Breeze flows by.

....and the wind carries the map away.

"MY MAP!!! MY MAP!!!"
Avira has posed:
Avira might have overdone it with the beatings. In fact, after a moment of reflection she actually feels pretty put off by her own behavior in light of Sevarius's condition.

Then Sevarius opens his mouth, taunting her about the contents of the syringe. Angrily, she shakes him once more before dropping him to the ground, then looking to Brooklyn. There's a concerned, worried look on her face, as if she thinks the Gargoyle would have some kind of explanation for her.

He did sound very knowledgeable about Sevarius's previous antics, after all.

Sarafina offers to amputate. Avira waves her arms around frantically, "He got me in my back, not my arm! You can't amputate my back!"

Looking back down to Sevarius, she grits her teeth. "Guess he gets arrested now."
Brooklyn has posed:
The gargoyle does eventually release Sevarius, and looks to Avira, "Well...The last time he injected somebody with something, they turned into Talon." He says, as he frowns slightly, or at least as much as one can on a beak, "But that's no guarantee that's what he stuck you with..I can't be 100% certain. I'm no doctor, or heck, even from this time period for that matter.." He looks at Sevarius, "I'm not sure what we should do with him now that we have him." A glance over towards the downed mutate, "Or Fang, for that matter."
Will Sherman has posed:
Will crashes into the ground after punching a hole into The Parasite cage.

Here, he looks up to watch the heartless crawl away...slowly, very slowly and painfully, he brings himself to his feet to start walking towards Brooklyn and company. He pauses, at the conversation and looks at Avira, "I don't see anything messing with her." he says simply, and groans. "Look, we don't have time for this. We gota get our acts together, or else something bad is going to happen." Will has turned into no-nonsense mode.

Be afraid, "Lets get our wounds treated.." he looks to Brooklyn, "We can get you treated too, unless you rather get back to your clan?"
Brooklyn has posed:
"My clan doesn't have healers." Brooklyn replies, "But a day's worth of stone sleep and I should be right as rain. So don't worry about me too much. Get everybody else treated."
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart phews and moves over to help Aerith up. She's pretty badly hurt but she can still stand at least "Are you okay Aerith? Let's get our pay and go home." She smirks a bit, lending a shoulder to the flower girl.
Deidra has posed:
Deidra looks at Sevarius is dropped and she just glares at him. She's got other things to worry about for a moment, she's concerned for Avira's well being she clealry got jabbed with somthing likey full of something terrible but who knows what. "There could be a place we could get help Brooklyn and you made me think of it. The space port in Twilight town there might be a doctor there who could help." She looks over at Fang "So what we doing with him?" there's heartless on the lose everywhere. "The TDA has another magic user she's a healer and could help. Either way we need to get moving, moon light's burning."
Dr. Anton Sevarius has posed:
Sevarius is extremely arrestable. The police pick him up, take witness statements, and haul him off in a police convoy. Surely he will be given proper justice now.

Fang gets stuck inside one of the pods in the Labyrinth, hidden away for now to recover. Or not. Who knows what will happen to the would-be leader of the Labyrinth?

And meanwhile, the greater threat to Manhattan beckons. Heroes are needed to stand against the encroaching Darkness. Because even now, the light is in danger of fading...
Tifa Lockhart has posed:
Tifa Lockhart shakes her head "Well that won't be done tonight, not in our state. Let's go back to the hotel first, we'll hunt them down in the morning. Even if people might get hurt right now, its no good if we get killed in the process either, don't you think?
Will Sherman has posed:
"If only we had a healer on hand." Will says, absently, "Anyway, TDA and friends, lets go wake Celina up." Will says to the gathering group.
